Buffalo Cauliflower Tacos

So apparently tacos are 'trending' right now and as much as I love a good old classic childhood taco (Old El Paso kit), sometimes I crave something a little lighter and fresher. My husband is also temporarily vegan which means I need to get a bit more creative in the kitchen.  This was a hit! Not only does it have tons of veggies that help with phase II of liver detoxifcation (cabbage, brussel sprouts and cauliflower) but is also cleverly disguised as a comfort food.  Yes, please.

You know those cravings that just won't quit? Chocolate is one of those cravings for me and usually, cravings are a sign that your body is missing something.

The problem is, chocolate is often high in sugar so it isn't ideal for an after-dinner pick-me-up. Here is a recipe that is ideal for people with all types of food restrictions, low in sugar and high in omega fatty acids.  It is perfect for keeping you satiated.

White Peach Tea Sangria

Toronto is sizzling right now and sometimes we want something other than hiding out in an AC-blasted house to beat the heat. This is a refreshing summer drink to cool down when times are hot. I love this recipe becuase it isn't overly sweet and has a decent hydrating ratio to it (aka it's not all alcohol). Feel free to mix up the type of wine, liqour, fruit and tea to make it to your liking!
